Week Discussion Topic

 Because different disciplines in public safety have slightly different authority, missions, and goals, those disciplines will, at times, have conflicts.  Similarly, public safety entities from different levels of government will often have conflicts over jurisdiction.  From your experience in the field of public safety, classes you’ve had, or research you’ve done, discuss a conflict in public safety between disciplines or jurisdictions over authority.  Discuss how different different goals and/or legal authority affected that conflict, how it was resolved, and how it might have been avoided then or might be avoided in the future.
